Lolita Fashion and the Lifestyle

First of all, Lolita is not the same as the Vladimir Nabokov novel that features the sexual encounters of a young girl to an old man.

Lolita Fashion takes it's inspiration from Victorian and Rococo. It is a unique blend of nostalgic details and modern cuts. The style originated in Japan and has now grown into different sub-genres. It has also spread tot he whole world.

Lolita Fashion strives to look cute rather than sexy. Apart from Ero Loli, Lolita Fashion has nothing to do with sex. Lolita Fashion looks more like a child of the Victorian or a porcelain doll. There are lots of lace, ruffles and ribbons. There is no detail spared. Lolitas are to much in the extremes.

Most Lolitas would be insulted that the outfits they wear are called costumes. It is a special and unique apparel. Wearing the get-up also entails staying true to the Victorian lifestyle. This means Lolitas tune into the lady-like ettiquettes and soft spoken manners while in outfit.
